Allen Allen KiX Supporter Registered: 2003-04-19 Posts: 4567 Loc: USA	Has anyone noticed this problem: If I am running the Google toolbar in IE6 and click on a link to an updated post like Re: FOXIT PDF Viewer, when the page comes up, the browser has scrolled past the post by a few lines, and I have to scroll back up to read it. If I disable the Google Toolbar and click the link, it opens and anchors properly. I've noticed this at other sites, but more at the korg than anywhere else. Google doesn't seem to have any faq/kb docs addressing it. Anyone else? Any ideas?

So I dont think its a problem with google in particular, but more like a problem with IE when it has an extra toolbar.

Allen Allen KiX Supporter Registered: 2003-04-19 Posts: 4567 Loc: USA	Well, it appears it is something with IE, and not a toolbar. Maybe I've gotten it mixed up with Fixfox when it worked properly. When I removed the toolbar, it still scrolls past the post. Oh well. Thanks for the help.

Lonkero Lonkero KiX Master Guru Registered: 2001-06-05 Posts: 22346 Loc: OK	think IE counts the window size (well, it does) and by that determines how much it should scroll. now, somehow some bars don't get properly "registered", thus IE does not count it but scrolls wrong. _________________________ ! download KiXnet

mole mole Getting the hang of it Registered: 2003-01-01 Posts: 81 Loc: Indian Head, Maryland, USA	I noticed the scrolling behavior too, but didn't pay close enough attention to when it started, though I know it was recent. Don't use any toolbars here, don't like'em. My impression was perhaps MSIE was scrolling to the last place I had previously viewed in a particular thread. Whenever and where ever this behavior comes from it is annoying. I'll scroll for my self. Is it a board setting or recent MS update? mole _________________________ mole Who is John Galt?

mole mole Getting the hang of it Registered: 2003-01-01 Posts: 81 Loc: Indian Head, Maryland, USA	Yep, got XP-sp2 here at work and W2K-SP4 server w/ MSIE6-SP1 at home. Same behavior on both. Maybe its my glasses or not getting enough sunlight. I live in the ground. mole _________________________ mole Who is John Galt?

mole mole Getting the hang of it Registered: 2003-01-01 Posts: 81 Loc: Indian Head, Maryland, USA	I've got no tool bars... google or the like, even backed off the native ones like address, links, standard... only the "file", "edit", "view", "favs", "tools", "help" and it still does it. Strange. _________________________ mole Who is John Galt?

Allen Allen KiX Supporter Registered: 2003-04-19 Posts: 4567 Loc: USA	I'm not questioning Google anymore, it's almost definately IE. I am using one of my older pcs right now, with XPSP2 but missing some of the lastest patches, and it is scrolling properly (also with Google toolbar). So maybe a can figure out if its one of the hotfixes.

Allen Allen KiX Supporter Registered: 2003-04-19 Posts: 4567 Loc: USA	Good Grief... who knows? I now have two machines with XPSP2, all patches... one scrolls right, the other doesn't. I'll just hope someones stumbles across a fix, as I've wasted too much time on this already.
